Employee of the Month (2006)
You've Already Seen This Movie.
I went in hoping for something that was like Clerks or Office Space, What I received was unfortunately this piece of crap.
Employee of the Month could have been funny or decent, but like most comedies made in the last decade, all of the characters and situations are unbelievably over the top. The characters are all unsympathetic caricatures with no depth and one joke apiece that they tell over and over again. Many of the remaining jokes don't even make any sense. The thing that always makes workplace comedy the funniest is the truth of the situations the characters find themselves in. Instead what was presented is a series of contrived plot points pulled from every teen movie and apparently written by a twelve year old imagining what it would be like to have a job.
There was a chuckle or two and Jessica Simpsons breasts gave a stunning cameo as themselves, otherwise this movie is just another poorly written, directed, and acted cliché fest with no heart, truth or humor.
Kaze, Ghost Warrior (2004)
Neat idea, but can be a lot better.
I think that Kaze, Ghost Warrior is an incredible proof of concept. I really enjoy the idea of anthropomorphic characters fighting each with ancient weapons. I also find the idea that a single person did all this is very impressive, BUT visuals aside it has no plot. Just a random arrangement of a few scenes, some of which are very confusing. All of the dialogue is very cliché, pulled right out of a western. It could almost work as a movie trailer, which I understand is kind of the intention, if it didn't have so many long boring pauses. The character design is awesome, the fur texturing and animation are better than some real professional stuff I have seen. Timothy Albee is a semi-decent animator, who could probably go far working for someone else. Watching, the special features though, he is far too impressed with the fact that he did all the writing, sound, music, and dialogue himself. When the only parts of this movie that were really any good was the animation and design. If he learns to relinquish control of some things, get a scriptwriter, a composer or music editor, and a lot more animators, the final version that he is trying to get off the ground might be worth watching someday.
